Entertaining Engines
Over 70 years in the making, this gigantic model train layout is still owned and operated by the Groff family. Master modeler, Tom Groff, designs and adds new animations, scale buildings and local scenes each year. See a fire engine race to the rescue to put out the fire at a burning house – with real water! Watch in awe as night falls over Traintown, USA. You’ll recognize local landmarks like Dutch Wonderland and the Strasburg Railroad – in detailed miniature! This is much more than a train display – it is an amazing, hand-built work of art.

Amazing Train Display!
This is really unique. It takes about 1/2 hour to get all the way around the display. The detail and scenery are outstanding. There are buttons to push to activate numerous animations and the lights go off several times to showcase the different nighttime activities. You're given a sheet when you go in to inform you of special features. This is well worth the entrance fee and adults will enjoy it as much as kids. The people that run it are very friendly & have a store with all kinds of train related items. This is a must see!

Could spend hours here
I love this place so much. We could spend hours trying to see everything and still not succeed. There are so many lovely, enjoyable moments in this miniature train community. You don't have to be a train aficionado to appreciate the details and craft that went into bringing this place to life.
